    No way Sarah. I think that you can go back until FC 6.0.3 but FC 6.0.1/2 won’t open the projects.
    Anyway you should up-date your FC 6.0. Is very-very buggy.

    I wanna update the 6.0 version into 6.0.5

    but apple’s website doesnt allow me to update it. apparently it states i have downloaded it already.

    is there anywhere else i can get an update other than apple’s web?

    Hi Sarah, try running “Software Updates’. The FC Updates do not show up as so, but as “Pro Applications Update”.

    also, when you run ‘Software Update’ you may need to do this a few times to get the Pro Apps to fully update. Running ‘Repair Permissions’ between each update is a good idea too.

    you mention that you got the academic version, right?

    I was under the impression that you cannot update an academic version, that is why they sell it cheaper. This may be your problem.
    That version is cheaper, but very limiting, so much so, I usually never suggest it. You also, aren’t supposed to use an academic version for ANY commercial project, not even while your using it for school.

    unfortunately your fix may be to buy a commercial license.
    Not sure about the legal way to “sell” or get rid of your academic version, so you don’t loose too much in your situation.
